STF makes the inaccessible accessible

STF is a voluntary organisation with deep roots within Swedish tourism based on the natural world and cultural heritage. We have fostered tourism in Sweden and our unique Swedish environment for over 130 years. You can support our work in several ways. Support a fundraising project or become a member. And becoming a member pays off – you receive a number of benefits such as discounts on accommodation and activities, and other special offers. In addition, you contribute to maintaining a living tourism industry focused on our cultural heritage and the natural world. Together we can make a difference!

What does STF work for?

Our activities are based on and guided by our guidelines. We are currently focussing on four issues that we feel deeply about.

  • Infrastructure

    We are working to achieve efficient and well-functioning infrastructure throughout Sweden – also in sparsely populated areas.

  • The right of public access

    We nurture and defend the right of public access (Allemansrätten), such that our Swedish natural world remains available to all.

  • Sustainable tourism

    We want to create the conditions required for a long-term and sustainable development of Swedish tourism.

  • Access to trails

    We want more people to be able to discover Sweden, and are therefore working for accessible and well-equipped trails.

    Support Kungsleden

    People have trekked along Kungsleden for more than 100 years. But the passage of time has left its mark, and the STF cabins and trail need renovation. Help us preserve our mountain world for only SEK 25 per metre.
